The scholarships will be available to the first five members who register online for the funding byOctober 15 of each year. The event will accept the first ten registrations, but those who register six through ten will be placed on a waiting list in the event one of the first five are unable to follow through. The window for registering for the scholarship will be opened September 1 of each year. To register, you will need to log on to your OSCA member account on line and then access the RAMP Up Ohio Scholarship event under the events page.
